The classic tale of "The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse" highlights that one can live in peace and happiness in a poorer home-- and appreciate it! It also shows the virtue of knowing yourself and in what environments you thrive. Such lessons can be hard to learn without living through them, but Aesop's fables present them to readers in an understandable, lively way. Colorful illustrations spark readers' imagination as they absorb each lesson through terrific, succinct storytelling like "The Peacock and Hera" and "The Farmer and Fortune.".
